Hints

Not Chased By Krimson Guard

When you steal any car, drive on the ground. When
you see a Krimson Guard Hell Cat above you, press
R2. You will hit the bottom of the Hell Cat, but
not get chased. Additionally, steal a hovercar and
when you see a guard, change to low hover levels.
Go fast, and before you hit them, get off quickly.
It will smack them without them knowing it was you.

Peace Maker

After you escort the three men down in the sewer,
there will be a icon on your radar. It will take
you to the Gun course. There will be a light
shining on a box. Open it to find a gun. You will
see an intermission sequence featuring Jak putting
the front of the Peace Maker on a gun. Then,
Daxter will say "Finally, our own Peace Maker,"
and you will have the Peace Maker. Note: It only
has ten shots. Also, when you have obtained the
Peace Maker, you can charge it and the Krimson
Guards will immediately start chasing you.

Defeating Metal Heads

If there are more than one Metal Heads or enemies,
double jump and kick in the air. Then, shoot to
send out a number of shots. Note: This only works
with the gun with the laser pointer in front.

Dark Tornado

If you've gotten enough Metal Head gems to visit
the Oracle for the second time, then you will
get another REALLY POWERFULL dark power. When
you turn into Dark Jak, you'll be able to spin
around, and around, and around, then zap all
your enemies to oblivion. When you do this move
all of time stands still except you while you
kill everyone within 20 ft. of you.

Long High Jump

While doing a rolling turbo long jump, right
before you land, jump again to get a very high
jump.

Sandovervillage

First have 65 orbs to buy scene player act 1. In the middle of it take the disk out and put it back in. If you do this correctly you should be in Sandovervillage.

Shortcut In Race 1

Start you'll go up a ramp and make a left turn well you'll see a gap with the track on the other side if you have a speed boost hit the circle button and jump (L1) right when you get to the edge (I tried without and with the boost) trust me it works I found it while playing.

Handstand

On the very first level if you go back wards you should see a warp gate do a jump smash (x+square) on the side and hit "o" and you should do a hand stand IN THE AIR for 2 seconds.

Unlimited Skullgems

After going into heavenforest, use the teleporter. After you get on top, keep on going forward a little and you will see a platform thing on your right. When you shoot it, it will turn upside down. Now get on it and go forward. Now there should be an elevator thing that takes you down to the ground. Get on it and get down. Keep on going straight. Don't turn left or right. Now follow the path. Now there should be a lot of frogs leaping and coming toward you. Stay back a little and shoot them. There should be a lot of skullgems. Don't go up or the frogs will stop coming. Keep on killing them and get the skullgems. This way you have a lot of skullgems. Unlike other cheats, you don't have to die and go there again to get more skullgems.
NOTE: you need to finish the game first.

How To Defeat The Final Boss

After you get full ammo, keep on going in circle until you find a way out (or the place you came in from). Its located on top. Go to it. After you reach there, go to the left corner of it. You should see some kind of rock stairs. Double ump and press circle. Now it should stand on the rock stair. Keep on doing it until you getup to the top. Finally, you are out of that place. Now back up a little so the boss cannot get u. To defeat the boss all you have to do is jump and shoot. And if the robots come, you need to destroy them first.
NOTE: you should never jump and shoot if he is about to shoot. Just stand there and wait. There is a pattern on how he shoots.

Dark Powers

After you collect a certain number of Skull Gems,
take them to the Oracle to get power-ps for Dark
Jak. Here's a list on how many you need, what
power, and how to use it:
1. 25 Skull Gems: Dark Bomb-Press X then Square.
2. 200 Skull Gems: Dark Blast-Press Square then X.
3. 200 Skull Gems: Invulnerability- Always active,
Dark Jak is invinsible.
4. 100 Skull Gems: Giant Dark Jak- Press R2. Note
that the Krimzon Guards will
attack you once you activated.

At The Speed Of Orbs

If you are stuck on those speed missions and you
can't get a fast ride, go giant Jak or use your
hoverboard.

Annoy The Crimson Guards

To do this you double jump onto people's heads. Note: While doing this they will or try to
hit you. When doing repeatedly while getting hit you will die.

Vulcan Shock

If you are in a hurry on your hover board and
you run in to a guard, get out your Vulcan gun
and once you are surrounded by them twist around
and start shooting. Soon the guards will be
dead. This helps a lot!

Daxter Holds Any Gun

If Jak has equipped any gun (for example, The
Blaster), steal a car with the gun still equipped.
You will see that Jak has given the gun to Daxter.
And if you fire the gun, Daxter will shoot. Or, if
you are in a car and equip a gun (for example, The
Blaster), Daxter is holding it. if you fire the
gun, Daxter will shoot.

More Ammunition

To get more ammo for any of your guns without
getting caught, do the following. Make sure you
are in a place where there are Krimzon Guards (for
example, Haven City). Steal a zoomer from anyone.
Accelerate (press X) at a Krimzon Guard, and when
it is about to hit him, get off (press Triangle).
Keep on doing this about four to five times to get
ammo. Also, to refill your ammo at any time during
a game, go to Haven City and go to the Gun Course.
It is in the Port; look for a Zoomer parked
outside a door. Go inside to the first room where
there are several Krimzon Guard Crates. Smash them
to find an assortment of ammo. You rarely (if at
all) will find Peace Maker ammo. If you do not max
out your ammo in one shot. Go outside, go to the
Hip Hog Saloon, return to the Gun Course, and the
Krimzon Guard Crates should have regenerated.

Save Ridepod Fuel

To save Ridepod fuel on levels with Ridepod Only
medals, run around the levels as Max. When you see
an enemy, press L3 to defeat it, then press L3
again to return to Max and not waste fuel.

Defeating The Baron

When fighting the Baron for the first time, he
will be in a shielded ship attacking you. At first
he will fire in straight lines at you. Dodge
these. After three shots, his shield will break.
Shoot him with your Blaster. Repeat until one
third of his health is gone, then get out of the
way as he charges to the next area. Follow him and
reload with the ammo in nearby crates. This time
he will fire missiles at you, which follow where
you run. Keep running to avoid these. After two
missile attacks, fire at him. Repeat until another
one third of his health is gone. Then, follow him
to the last area. His shield is now gone; fire
when you can. He will send fiery tornadoes at you.
Shoot him until he runs away.
When fighting the Baron in Mar's Tomb, pull out
the Scatter gun and shoot the mech spiders that he
sends at you. When all of them are gone, he will
fire bombs at you. Knock them back at him with a
spin attack. Aim carefully to hit him. Four bombs
will take one third of his health away. He will
send more spiders at you. Hide behind the pillars
to avoid being shot by the Baron. Knock four more
bombs his way. He will get the Precursor Stone.
Again, stay behind the pillars to avoid him. He
will take out sections of the walkway and shoot
only two bombs. If you can turn into Dark Jak, do
so and use a Dark Bomb to finish him. Otherwise,
knock the bombs into him. However aiming will be
much harder now; act fast and the battle will be
yours.
Note: When you defeat Baron Praxis (in the Tomb of
Mar) and leave Mar's tomb, you will start to see
yellow Krimson Guards. The only difference is that
they take more hits to kill.

Krimson Guard Revenge

After you defeat Krew, go back to his place. Win
the Wack the Metal Head game. Metal Heads will be
loose, and the Krimson Guards will be chasing only
them. You can now kill the Krimson Guards without
them going after you.

Avoid Krimson Guards By Stealth

When on foot in the city and being chased by
guards, get out of sight and press the Left
Analog-stick towards a wall. You will get stealthy
until the panic is over.

Shortcut In Torn Mission 2

On the second long jump, when you are on top of
the sewage thing, jump to the left. If you keep
going straight once you hit land, there will be
stairs taking you to a new part of the mission. Go
up the stairs. This skips about one half of the
mission.

Lurker Shark On Plaque In Hip Hog Heaven

Go to Hip Hog Heaven (the bar place) and look on
some of the plaques. There will be a Lurker Shark
on one of them.

Baron Praxis Comments

After you complete the game, go to a radio
structure where announcements are said. If you
wait, you will hear Baron say things like "
Victory is ours!" and "It's hard ruling a city,
you know."

Ratchet And Clank: Going Commando Reference

In Haven City, go to the giant garden that has
giant flowers and a water cannon shooting water on
them. It is near the entrance of Haven Forest and
the Mountain. From here, go to the City (not to
the stadium area that is nearby). Go past few
small bridges, then you should face a big
building. On its wall, you should see a picture of
Ratchet and Clank (the main characters of
Insomniac games' Ratchet and Clank). Ratchet is
wearing his green commando suit from in Ratchet
and Clank: Going Commando.

Destroy Produce Stands

Notice the produce stands scattered about the area
of Haven City where Onin is located. You can wreck
them. Punch, spin, shoot, or hover over the boxes
and vases. They will break and the produce will
scatter everywhere.

Winning The Second Race

The jet bike will jump if you press L1. When the
race starts hold back a little and collect the
left side boost icon left by the pack. Use a Jump
and Boost combo to clear the cannon and cut out a
hard U-turn. You will see light across the cannon
where you jump. This should have you in front of
the pack. Remain there by taking this shortcut in
all five laps.

Winning The Class 1 Race

When you get on your race car, there will be an
intermission sequence that shows Erol pulling in
next to you, and Baron Praxis will announce if
someone manages to the grand champion they will
get a year supply of Eco and a ticket to get in
his palace. When you start the race, there will be
a short cut at the beginning on the right-hand
side. Try to keep your first place lead. Near the
finish line there will be a very brief shortcut
tat puts you somewhat farther ahead. Repeat this
three times and use the shortcuts to win the Class
1 race.

Faster Time In Stadium Mission

When the mission where Jak has to race across the
city to the stadium becomes available, complete
all other missions until it is the only mission
remaining. You can now receive a faster time by
going from Krew's place north into the square and
through the area with the water. Follow the map to
reach the stadium in time with ease.

Hover On Water And Dark Eco With JetBoard

When keep the JetBoard, you can use it to hover on
water and Dark Eco. This can be very useful when
you want to go faster on water if you do not have
a Zoomer, or if you have to cross some Dark Eco lakes.

Swim Faster

To make Jak swim faster, keep tapping the
Analog-stick in the direction you want to go.

Avoid Guards By Stealth

When on foot in the city and being chased by
guards, get out of sight and press the Left
Analog-stick towards a wall. You will get stealthy
until the panic is over.

Blender

Go to an area where there are no Krimzon Guards
(such as the mountain area). Waste the ammunition
for all your guns. Pull out the Vulcan Fury again
by pressing Left, then hold R1. The Vulcan Fury
will rotate, but since it has no ammo, nothing
will fire. Instead, you will hear only the
mechanics of the gun, which sound similar to a
blender.

Big Jumps

Instead of holding L1 then pressing X to do a big
jump, press X(2), Circle, jump twice, then spin kick.

Spinning Rapidfire Blaster Combo

When you have the Blaster rifle and have it
equipped, jump (X) then when in the air, spin
(Circle) and fire (R1) while spinning in the air.
Jak will start shooting rapidly while spinning.
Use this to easily kill a group of enemies when
surrounded.

Blaster Combo

When you have the Blaster rifle and have it
equipped, use the punch attack (Square) on an
enemy, then quickly shoot (R1). Jak will knock the
enemy in the air and finish it with a strong rapid
fire.

Defeating Metal Head Leader

Begin by taking out your blaster and kill all the
enemies. Then, shoot him repeatedly until more
Metal Heads appear. Repeat this as many times as
needed until he gets in the red. When he gets in
the red, he will jump off the string things and
will be on the ground. Avoid him until he shoots
three lasers at you. He should now be on the other
side of you. Take out the Peace Maker and shoot
him. Repeat this as many times needed to defeat
the Metal Head leader and complete the game.
When the battle starts, take out your Vulcan gun
and fire at the Leader until he charges a shot.
Get out of the way. Switch to your Blaster and run
around the area, firing at the Leader
occasionally. Take out the bugs if they get too
close; otherwise stay away from them. When you get
to phase two (one third of his health is gone),
continue firing at him until the flying Metal
Heads approach you. If you have enough Eco, turn
into Dark Jak. Take some of the lesser enemies
then do a Dark Blast close to the Leader (takes
about half a health bar). Repeat the earlier
process until the Leader starts running around.
Continue running until his blasts are coming from
the side instead of behind. Turn and blast him.
Repeat to win.

Defeating Krew

When you first start, kill all of the "clones" of
Krew (they only do 1 damage). First, go around in
a circle about three times then turn around and
shoot them. If they get too close, keep going
around. After you kill all the clones, Krew he
will come after you on his flying chair and try to
shoot you. Take out your Peace Maker and charge a
shot up. When he comes around, shoot him a couple
of times with the Peace Maker. He will go off in
the distance. Repeat this as many times as needed
to defeat Krew. Note: After you shoot Krew with
the Peace Maker, get ammo out of the boxes.

Infinite Skullgems

After you have collected 200 Precursor Orbs, you
can start a new game in hero mode. In Hero Mode,
you can get unlimited Skullgems from Metal Heads.
Kill the Metal Heads, take their Skullgems, and
after you die or exit, re-enter the level and meet
the same Metal Heads again. They will give you
another Skullges. You can easily collect all the
Skullgems needed to give to the Oracle for the new
Dark Jak skills. Then, kill yourself and repeat.

Bounce Head

In the game Jak 2 you discover the new soldiers
known as the krimzon guards. If you run up to one
(either red or yellow) and jump on there head
they will swing your gun or shocker thing at
you. I'm not sure if this will work in Jak 3
though.

Map

There is a very useful map on the back of the
back Jak 2 cover. There are no more maps on any
of the games, just to save you the trouble.

Swim Anywhere You Want In The Pumping Station

You can get rid of that annoying robot that
kills you instantly by turning into Dark Jak and
executing Dark Bomb in the water while the robot
is in view. If done correctly your screen should
shake a little and the robot should disappear.

Destroy The Metalhead Leader

First when Metalhead Kor drops his Scorpion eggs
try to focus on killing them not Kor and keep an
eye out for Kor's attacks. When his head starts
shinning get ready for an attack. When theres
not any eggs or metalheads around then shoot kor.
Keep another eye out for kor's machine flying
metalheads. other than that keep shooting Kor.

Protect Stadium

When you are at the Stadium, when the two Green sages are using there green eco powers preparing the time machine over to the balloon lift, you must protect them and their health meaters are displayed at the upper left corner. You have to make sure that their health doesnt run out, so.. You also must kill Metal heads to defend the two sages. When you are defending them its a good idea to use your DARK eco powers or use the dark
eco power bomb, to use that ((( x ,then, sqaure))). or use your Vulcan Furry gun, also
it's a better idea to use your Blaster gun and theres a good move to use with the blaster gun ((( x, circle, R1))). {{hope you like my help}}

Protect Haven City From Metal Head Invasion

In one level, you must protect Haven City from an
onslaught of Metal Heads that come via air ship.
Make sure that you are able to become dark Jak at
short notice. The onslaught will come in fast, so
get out your best gun. At the time I think it's
the Vulcan. Fight them off for a short amount of
time, then turn to Dark Jak. Use the Massive
explosion to finish them off quickly.

Giant Dark Jak

Get 100 Metal Head orbs for the fourth time and
you will get the ability to becom huge. All
your dark powers have better rang and power and
you are 5 times faster then you normal stat.

Dark Invincibility

Get 200 Metal Head orbs for the third time and
you will get Dark Invincibility. This only
works when you are in dark mode.

Escape Metal Heads At Dead Town

When Torn tells you to go to Dead Town in order
to take out all the Metal Heads, you will have to
do that like he says. But once you have found
Somos' hut, more of them will flud in and attack
you. Use the spread gun to kill the onslaught of
the smaller, and more obnocious little digging
Metal Heads. Then a group of regular ones will
turn the corner and attack you. Use the second
gun that Krew gave you on them. Once you have
killed them all, look over the ledge and you will
see the land very close to the escape. Jump down.
It will take a little life away, but it's worth
it.

Easy Orbs

After you have gotten the hoverboard go to any
place that has water or the mud zaping stuff or
dark eco. You can hover over it.

Wild Fire

Heres a really cool move, switch to any of your
guns. Then start kicking then shoot.

How To Transform Into Dark Jak

To transform into the tougher, more powerful Dark
Jak, you must first collect tons of dark eco. You
this by destroying many metal heads and other
creatures. (If you kill a person, purple stuff
comes out of them but you won't get any eco.)
Once you get enough eco, the picture of Jak in
the health meter will turn into Dark Jak. Hold L2
to activate Dark Jak. Dark Jak is strong enough
to kick away vehicles and if you collect metal
head gems, you can go to an oracle to increase
Dark Jak's powers.

Hero Mode Extras

When you get in Hero Mode you will start out with
all the weapons and you enemies will be a lot
stronger. Hero Mode will also has different
secrets.

Ride Elevator To Palace

In the mission: Ride Elevator to Palace, you
will come across a place where there are
electric blade like things to dodge. After you
have passed them, you will find a bunch of
tiles that have sparks coming out of them. It is
nearky impossible to get across these. Look
down to the left. There are some stairs. Go
down them, there will be some poles to swing
on and that will get you past those.

Continues Punches

This hint is used to defeat enemys faster. First
you need to be in Dark Jak form. Then, just keep
pressing the square button. In no time, all your
enemies will be gone. This is very useful if
you're in a hurry.

Massive Explosion

This only works when you are in "Dark Jak" mode.
When you are in this mode, press X to jump and
hit square while you are in the air. This will
make Jak come down head first into the ground,
causing a massive explosion destroying everything
around him. This works really well when you have
a lot of metal-heads or any other creatures
attacking you.
